expansion board with one or two USB host ports and an audio chip, then
I've got a digital synthesizer. Somewhere in a parts drawer around
here I have an LCD display just waiting to be used too, so if it has
GPIO pins then the thing can have a user interface too.

Ken,

Why not the VIA Mini-ITX stuff?  Some of it appearing on newegg now.
Get a nice all-in-one board for under $200, case etc. not included.

Here's a link to a search:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Description=mini-itx&x=0&y=0

If that doesn't work, just do a search for mini-itx on newegg and
you'll find a bunch.

Hope this helps,

Josh
